trans-10,cis-12 CLA exhibited smaller
lipid droplets, with reduced levels of the major monounsaturated fatty
acids, palmitoleate and oleate. By contrast, the

| INTRODUCTION |
|---|
|
|
|---|
The mechanisms by which CLA exerts these biological effects have not
been completely elucidated. However, one of the effects of CLA that has
been observed consistently is its ability to alter the fatty acid
composition of tissues by reducing the levels of monounsaturated fatty
acids (Lee et al. 1995
). The main monounsaturated fatty
acids, oleate and palmitoleate, are synthesized by the stearoyl-CoA
desaturase (SCD) from stearate and palmitate, respectively.
Palmitoleate and oleate are the major (58%) monounsaturated fatty
acids of membrane phospholipids and triglycerides found in
differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes and in mouse adipose tissue in vivo
(Kasturi and Joshi 1982
). A proper ratio of saturated to
monounsaturated fatty acids is important in maintaining membrane
fluidity; alteration of this ratio can influence a variety of
physiologic responses, including adiposity (Field et al. 1990
), metabolic rate (Storlien et al. 1991
) and
insulin sensitivity (Jones et al. 1996
), all of which
are influenced by CLA.
In this study, we used the well-characterized mouse 3T3-L1
preadipocyte cell line as a model of differentiation and lipid
biogenesis to examine the effects of the
cis-9,trans-11 and
trans-10,cis-12 isomers of CLA on adipocyte gene
expression and fat composition. The results demonstrate that treatment
of 3T3-L1 cells with the trans-10,cis-12 isomer
of CLA reduces the expression of the SCD1 in a dose-dependent
fashion (10100 µmol/L), whereas those of other adipocyte
genes such as adipose P2 (aP2), SCD2, fatty acid synthase (FAS), CCAAT
enhancer binding protein
(C/EBP
) and peroxisome
proliferator-activated receptor
2 (PPAR
2) are not
significantly affected. The downregulation of the SCD1 gene corresponds
to a decrease in SCD protein and enzyme activity as well as in the
total composition of 16:1 and 18:1 fatty acids. We hypothesize that the
trans-10,cis-12 isomer of CLA reduces body fat in
part by decreasing the major monounsaturated fatty acids of
triglycerides, resulting in the formation of small lipid droplets and
small fat cells.
| MATERIALS AND METHODS |
|---|
|
|
|---|
Conjugated linoleic acid (96.6% pure) was prepared as described
(Chin et al. 1992
) and contained 47.6%
trans-10,cis-12; 45.7%
cis-9,trans-11; 1.71%
trans-9,trans-11/trans-10,trans-12
and 3.04% other isomers. The
trans-10,cis-12 and the
cis-9,trans-11 CLA isomers (>95% pure)
were gifts from Dr. Sih of the Department of Pharmacology, University
of Wisconsin-Madison. Methylisobutylxanthine was obtained from
Aldrich (Milwaukee, WI). Dexamethasone and fatty acid methyl standards
were purchased from Sigma Chemical (St. Louis, MO). Fetal bovine serum,
Dulbeccos modified Eagles medium (DMEM), penicillin/streptomycin
and trypsin were from Gibco (Gaithesburg, MD). Insulin was from Eli
Lilly (Indianapolis IN). Calf serum was from Bio Whittaker
(Walkersville, MD). Radionucleotides were from NEN Life Sciences
(Boston, MA).
Cell culture.
3T3-L1 preadipocytes were maintained and induced to differentiate as
described (Bernlohr et al. 1985
). CLA,
trans-10,cis-12, or
cis-9,trans-11 isomers were complexed
with albumin as described previously (Lee et al. 1998
).
The fatty acids were replenished with every medium change unless
otherwise stated. Controls were conducted with albumin in the culture
medium where appropriate.
Oil Red O staining of cultured cells.
Cells were washed with distilled water, fixed with 10% buffered neutral formalin, rinsed again with water, and finally with 70% ethanol. Cells were stained with 10 mL of Oil Red O (0.3%) for 7 min. The dye was washed off with 70% ethanol and then water. Cells were photographed at 100X under light microscopy.
Isolation and analysis of RNA.
Northern analysis was performed with total cellular RNA isolated from
3T3-L1 cells as described (Bernlohr et al. 1985
). After
agarose-formaldehyde gel electrophoresis, the blot was hybridized
with 32P-labeled SCD1, SCD2, aP2, FAS, PPAR
2 and
C/EBP
cDNAs. pAL15 cDNA was used as the internal loading control.
Western blotting.
Monolayers of preadipocytes or adipocytes were washed with PBS and lysed in 50 mmol/L Tris-HCl, 150 mmol/L NaCl, 1 mmol/L EDTA, 1% NP-40, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 1 mmol/L Na3VO4, 10 mmol/L NaMo, 40 mmol/L NaF, 1 mmol/L phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 2 g/L aprotinin and 1 g/L leupeptin. The cell lysates were passed through a 23-gauge needle, incubated at 4°C for 10 min and then centrifuged at 10,000 x g for 10 min at 4°C. Protein concentrations were determined by dye binding assay using bovine serum albumin as the standard. Equal amounts of protein were separated by 10% SDS-PAGE, transferred and immobilized on Immobilon-P transfer membranes (Millipore, Danvers, MA) at 4°C. After blocking with 10% nonfat dry milk in PBS at room temperature for 2 h, the membranes were washed and incubated with rabbit anti-rat SCD as the primary antibody and goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G-HRP conjugate as the secondary antibody. Visualization of the SCD protein was performed with the ECL Western blot detection system (Amersham-Pharmacia Biotech, Piscataway, NJ) using procedures provided by the manufacturer.
Measurement of SCD enzyme activity.
The SCD activity was determined as described (Legrand and Bensadoun 1991
). The assay system contained 7.2 mmol/L ATP,
0.54 mmol/L CoA, 6 mmol/L MgCl2, 0.8 mmol/L NADH, 0.1 mol/L
PBS (pH 7.16), 200 nmol of [1-14C]-palmitic acid
(specific activity 0.98 Bq/mol) in 5 µL ethanol, and
microsomal fraction (1.01.8 mg protein) in 1 mL final volume.
The reaction was initiated by addition of the microsomal fraction;
incubation was at 37°C for 15 min. The reaction was stopped by adding
1 mL 12% KOH in ethanol, followed by heating for 1 h at 80°C.
Fatty acids were extracted with hexane after acidification with HCl.
Fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) were prepared with 4% HCl/methanol at
60°C for 20 min and separated by TLC on silver nitrateimpregnated
silica gel G plates using a hexane/ether (9:1) solvent system. To help
visualization, cold standards (palmitic and palmitoleic acid methyl
esters) were cospotted with samples. Spots were identified under UV
light after spraying with 0.2% dichlorofluorescein ethanolic solution
and comparison with authentic standards; they were scraped off the
plates, extracted with hexane and subjected to liquid scintillation
counting (Beckman Liqid Scintillation Systems, model LS 5801, Beckman
Instruments, Irvine, CA) using Bio-Safe II. Enzyme activities were
calculated as nanomoles palmitic acid converted to palmitoleic acid per
minute per milligram protein.
Lipid analysis.
Cells were washed twice with cold PBS. Total cellular lipids were extracted three times with 2 mL of chloroform/methanol (2:1 v/v). Aliquots of the lipid extracts were dried under nitrogen, converted to FAME using 4% HCl/methanol at 60°C for 20 min and identified by comparison with standards (Sigma Chemical) by gas chromatography (GC). GC was conducted with a Hewlett-Packard 5890 series II fitted with a flame ionization detector and 3396A integrator. A Supelcowax-10 fused silica capillary column (60 m x 0.32 mm i.d., 0.25 µm film thickness; Bellefonte, PA) was used and oven temperature was programmed from 50 to 200°C, increased 20°C/min, held for 50 min, increased 10°C/min to 220°C, and held for 30 min.
Statistical analysis.
Data in Figure 4 were tested using ANOVA and Duncans multiple
range procedure with the Statistics Analysis System (SAS Institute,
Cary, NC). Differences were considered significant when
P
0.1. One-way ANOVA and Tukeys multiple
range test were performed on data in Table 1
. Differences were considered significant at P < 0.01.
Values are presented as means ± SEM.

2, are shown in Figure 1
2 mRNA were very low but were increased dramatically when
the cells were induced to differentiate with
1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine, dexamethasone and insulin (MDI) (lane 2).
Continuous treatment of the cells with CLA decreased SCD1, aP2 and
PPAR
2 mRNA in a dose-dependent manner (lanes 35). The decrease
in aP2 and PPAR
2 expression by CLA during 3T3-L1 preadipocyte
differentiation is in agreement with published data (Brodie et al. 1999
2 mRNA levels remained elevated.
Trans-10,cis-12-supplemented plates showed little
Oil Red O staining compared with plates treated with MDI alone or MDI
plus cis-9,trans-11 CLA isomer (Fig. 1B

0.1). Fatty acid analysis showed that cells
differentiated in the presence of trans-10,cis-12
CLA contained significantly lower palmitoleic (16:1) and oleic (18:1)
acids compared with cells differentiated with MDI (Table 1)
|
2 and FAS mRNAs was reduced only slightly by
trans-10,cis-12 CLA. The expression of pAL15 cDNA
used as a control was not altered in the presence of MDI, or MDI plus
trans-10,cis-12. The presence of SCD2, aP2,
PPAR
2 and FAS transcripts suggests that the levels of
trans-10,cis-12 CLA isomer used did not
completely block preadipocyte differentiation.
|
| DISCUSSION |
|---|
|
|
|---|
By contrast, other laboratories (Houseknect et al. 1998
,
Satory and Smith 1999
) have reported that CLA may
enhance preadipocyte differentiation in vitro under some conditions,
possibly by mimicking the effects of thiazolidinediones via activation
of PPAR
2. However, the available in vivo data (Park et al. 1999a
) are not consistent with this hypothesis. The reasons for
the discrepancies are not clear, but the use of CLA preparations
containing different amounts and ratios of CLA isomers should be
considered. For example, some commercial CLA preparations are poorly
characterized and contain numerous CLA isomers; this may complicate
data interpretation (Pariza. et. al. 2000
, Sehat et al. 1999
). However, the CLA preparations that we have
utilized in this study are virtually pure single isomers and fully
characterized isomer mixtures prepared by our published methods.
Our results show that the trans-10,cis-12 CLA
isomer elicits some but not all of the in vitro effects of the CLA
isomer mixture. Notably, the trans-10,cis-12 CLA
isomer decreased SCD1 mRNA expression, protein level and enzyme
activity during the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes (Figs. 1
2
3
4
5)
. Consistent with this effect, the levels of 16:1 and 18:1 fatty
acids were also reduced (Table 1)
. Bretillon et al. (1999)
reported that trans-10,cis-12 CLA
specifically inhibited SCD activity, whereas the
cis-9,trans-11 CLA isomer was without such
effect, a finding that we have confirmed (unpublished) previously. We
reported previously that the trans-10,cis-12 CLA
isomer also specifically reduced lipoprotein lipase activity and the
amount of triglycerides and glycerol in 3T3-L1 cells (Park et al. 1999b
). The reduction of lipid within 3T3-L1 adipocytes
induced by trans-10,cis-12 CLA (Fig. 1)
may be
related in part to the inhibition of the SCD gene because 16:1 and 18:1
monounsaturated fatty acids constitute 58% of the fatty acids in fat
droplets of these cells (Lee et al. 1995
). This finding
supports the hypothesis that this isomer may block 3T3-L1 preadipocyte
differentiation. However, the lack of effect of the
trans-10,cis-12 CLA isomer on the expression of
aP2 and PPAR
2 (Fig. 1)
argues against this interpretation. Our
results are consistent with the conclusion that
trans-10,cis-12 CLA does not block adipocyte
differentiation per se but rather specifically inhibits the expression
of the SCD gene, resulting in reduced accumulation of oleic and
palmitoleic acids and hence fat cells with small lipid droplets.
We cannot yet explain why the CLA isomer mixture reduced aP2 and
PPAR
2 mRNA, whereas the trans-10,cis-12 CLA
isomer was without such effect (Fig. 1)
. It is possible that the effect
is caused by another CLA isomer that is present in the CLA mixture but
not in the pure trans-10,cis-12 CLA isomer
preparation. We think that this is unlikely, however, on the basis of
our previous work in the 3T3-L1 system with preparations containing
various CLA isomer ratios (Park et al. 1999b
). However,
the CLA isomer mixture also contains unreacted linoleic acid, which by
itself blocks 3T3-L1 preadipocyte differentiation and adipocyte gene
expression (Casimir and Ntambi 1996
). The other
possibility that has not been tested is that certain physiologic
effects of CLA require interaction of the major CLA isomers, and yet
the individual isomers may also exert different physiologic effects.
The trans-10,cis-12 isomer of CLA displays other
biological activities that are associated with lipid metabolism. For
example, mature cultured 3T3-L1 adipocytes treated with
trans-10,cis-12 CLA exhibit reduced lipoprotein
lipase activity and reduced intracellular concentrations of
triglyceride and glycerol (Park et al. 1999b
). These
actions, coupled with the activities that we now report, may explain
the reduction of body fat in mice by CLA isomer mixtures that contain
trans-10,cis-12 CLA (Park et al. 1997
) as well as by purified preparations of the
trans-10,cis-12 CLA isomer (Park et al. 1999b
)
The mechanism of trans-10,cis-12 action on SCD
gene expression could involve decreased SCD mRNA stability
and/or gene transcription. We showed previously that
polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid repress the
expression of the SCD gene in adipocytes at the level of mRNA stability
(Sessler et al. 1996
). Determing whether CLA decreases
the expression of the SCD gene by reducing mRNA stability requires
further investigation.
